Slideshow Questions
The Slideshow Question Manager allows you to create your own questions and upload your own images to create
up to a 30-player quiz/challenge.
Slideshow challenges can have graphical based questions which are more suitable for practical subjects. Teachers
can customise and control their own questions through the web site based question manager. This allows teachers
to upload their own tailor made questions which may be more suited to their needs.
Questions can be created individually through the web site slideshow manager or you are able to upload multiple
questions through an Excel spreadsheet.
Getting Started
When creating a question slideshow, it can be useful to have all your images ready to be uploaded. This includes
making sure all images are the correct size and format, and named in a logical way so they are easily identifiable
when selecting them for upload from your file list.
Whilst creating your slideshow you will be required to upload a title image and you have the option of using a
background image .
The title image will be the first slide of the slideshow. It must be 640 x 480 pixels and be JPEG format. This title
image will also be reduced and used as a menu button in the main menu.
The background image will be used as a background for the slideshow settings. It must be 640 x 480 pixels and
be JPEG format.
The actual slides to be used within the slideshow should also be 640 x 480 pixels and be JPEG format.
Some slideshow questions will use images as answers. When creating these images be aware of the size of the
buttons they will be used with. The two buttons available are:
260 x 29(pixels) - rectangular images, sometimes used for
displaying text in another language.
110 x 97(pixels) square images.
